The purpose Y!As serves is not as it was intended to be. Many are here to harass others (in R&S especially), many are here to have their beliefs confirmed (especially evolutionists), and many are here for fun. The real nature of this forum has been so prevalent that most now believe that it is as intended. Others may disagree, but I believe that it was intended to answer people's questions. Many need support of some kind, many need advice, many need practical solutions, but in reality those who seek such answers are the minority, though most need such answers. For me, now, it serves 2 purposes: (1) for practical issues, and (2) it is an exercise in self-discipline. For my most recent Qs I have not read the As. This is because I need to learn to care less what people think. That is my primary purpose. If I am booted off for this, that’s fine, because that means that it has very little purpose for me. I can get practical answers elsewhere. I will not likely see the answers to this Q.
